This is one of my very favorite Holidays I tend to go a little overboard. We have a leprechaun who throughout the year is known for stealing a sock or two from the laundry but on St. Patrick’s day he steals shoes and the kids have to search all over the house to find them usually filled with surprises. The beauty of St. Patrick’s is you can add green food coloring to almost any dish although left over green rice is sometimes challenging!
Lucky charms are an easy St. Patrick ’s Day breakfast.
We also like to make Irish flag cake for breakfast.
1 C milk
6 eggs
1 C flour
¼ tsp salt
Green food coloring
3 T butter
Peaches
Cool whip
Mix milk, eggs, flour, salt, food coloring in blender. Melt butter in a 9X13 Pan in oven pour batter into hot pan. Bake @ 450 for 25 minutes it puffs up and waves like a flag. Spread Peaches on a 1/3 of the flag going up and down. Then in another 1/3 spread the cool whip and leave the other 1/3 green.
Couldn’t get my camera fast enough.
At our house it just wouldn’t be St. Patrick’s day without Shamrock Pop
24 Cups which is 6 Quarts of popped Corn
2 C sugar
2/3 C half n half
1 T light corn syrup
½ t salt
1 t vanilla
½ t green food coloring
Cook sugar, milk, syrup, salt to a soft ball then remove from heat add vanilla and food coloring. Pour over popped corn and mix put on pan of wax paper to cool. A few years ago I threw in some (gold coins) yellow m&m’s.
